The Feast Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe
On this most holy of days…we gather here to celebrate
La Virgen,
as well as the joy of being a part of this process…
this commitment to each other and ourselves.

The Virgin of Guadalupe reigns supreme here in the Southwest, and in, and around my home, as well.

She is found in almost every room…

as well as in our yard and my studio.

She sometimes lights up me up in a revolving, psychodelic kind of way

or whispers softly from a vintage canvas…

I will visit each one this morning with this prayer:

Blessed Guadalupe I ask that you hold us all in your benevolent embrace, as we cherish and honor you today,
and always

A special thank you to Rebecca@ http://corazon.typepad.com/ for leading us on this most beautiful journey, and reminding us of what Christmas is truly all about…

What a beautiful tribute to OUr Lady! I especially love that last painting-I don’t think I’ve seen that one before. It is the best representation of her (if I were to imagine it) that I have seen. Do you know who painted it?
Enjoyed this journey with you. See you next year!

I love your website and your art work so much. I have you on my blog roll but just haven’t been posting and reading blogs as much lately. This 12 days has hopefully renewed my oomph to stay more connected. Thanks so much for everything.
